I have a couple of old Kenwood TK-762H transceivers. I see the issue on http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/3139 but I seem to be having troubles. When I attempt to read from the radio using TK-762G it appears to read from the radio then dumps the error dialog *"An error has occurred: The radio doesn't accept program mode"* ERROR: -- Exception: -- ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ui/clone.py", line 238, in run self.__radio.sync_in() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line 884, in sync_in self._mmap = do_download(self) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line 517, in do_download _open_radio(radio, status) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760g.py", line 478, in _open_radio raise errors.RadioError("The radio doesn't accept program mode") RadioError: The radio doesn't accept program mode ERROR: ---------------- ERROR: Clone failed: The radio doesn't accept program mode ERROR: --- Exception Dialog: The radio doesn't accept program mode --- ERROR: None ERROR: ---------------------------- If I attempt using TK-760 chirp attmpts to read and almost immediately dumps the error dialog saying *"An error has occurred Radio refuse to enter into program mode after a few tries"* ERROR: ---------------------------- ERROR: -- Exception: -- ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/ui/clone.py", line 238, in run self.__radio.sync_in() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760.py", line 411, in sync_in self._mmap = do_download(self) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760.py", line 255, in do_download open_radio(radio) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/chirp/drivers/tk760.py", line 227, in open_radio raise errors.RadioError(msg) RadioError: Radio refuse to enter into program mode after a few tries ERROR: ---------------- ERROR: Clone failed: Radio refuse to enter into program mode after a few tries ERROR: --- Exception Dialog: Radio refuse to enter into program mode after a few tries --- ERROR: None ERROR: ---------------------------- FWIW I am running CPU~Dual core AMD E2-1800 APU with Radeon HD Graphics (-MCP-) speed~1700 MHz (max) Kernel~4.2.0-34-generic i686 Mem~2035.9/3635.1MB HDD~750.2GB(35.9% used) Ubuntu 15.10 CHIRP daily-20160513 GTK 2.24.28 PyGTK 2.24.0 Python 2.7.10 I am also having issues with a QTY KT8900 I have tried to follow all this has been discussed on http://chirp.danplanet.com/issues/2673 but to no avail. any assistance is appreciated

[chirp_users] General: Updating CHIRP
by Richard B. Emerson 11 Aug '16

11 Aug '16

How are non-alpha/beta updates handled? That is, given all the daily releases (i.e., alpha testing), is there ever a "looks pretty stable to me" release? What I've got now does what I need done (very well - good on ya!). OTOH, a new release might do something useful that I don't have in the release I use. But I prefer not to do alpha or beta testing if I can avoid it. So... how often does a stable release come out? 73 de KC3DOO Rick

Hi Using Chirp with either a Baofeng UV-5R or Intek KT 980HP is it possible to remove the 2 metre and 70 centimetre facility so that only the user programmed frequencies are available for use. Any help appreciated Regards BernieBernard Dowley

Hi, I am trying to move Baofeng data to a Yaesu ft-7900R. If I load the Baofeng data into Chirp It selects Baofeng in the upload box and I cannot change it as it is grayed out. Any help anyone can provide will be appreciated. Thanks, Joe - K5WAS

sometimes every day at other times it might be a week or more. they don't seem to have a set schedule. before I use CHIRP I check for any updates.

Doesn't really matter what's in the Yaesu but you have to download from it so that CHIRP understands its memory and settings layout. Once you have a tab with the Yaesu download data you can paste the data from the Baofeng into it. Then you can upload from the Yaesu tab to the Yaesu radio.
